Estimating the term…
The disclosure provides methods, apparatus and computer-readable media for synchronization over an optical network. A method comprises: receiving, from a client, a request to initiate a synchronization service for a client node coupled to the optical communication network; and, in response to the request, establishing a synchronization service to the client node via a virtual synchronization network utilizing the optical communication network. The synchronization service utilizes a bidirectional optical channel established via the optical communication network for the transmission of synchronization data for the client.
A method, in a communication network node, of providing synchronization information via an optical communication network, the method comprising:
A communication network node, comprising processing circuitry and a machine-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by the processing circuitry, cause the communication network node to:
A communication network comprising a communication network node and at least one client, the communication network node comprises a processing circuitry and a machine-readable medium for storing instructions which, when executed by the processing circuitry, cause the communication network node to:
